Stem Innovation has announced its latest iOS accessory and this time it comes in the form of a wireless connected, app controlled video camera. What is special about this video camera is its ability to be activated via sound or movement and it can record directly to YouTube.

iZON is incredibly easy to setup and use. iZON can be placed on any horizontal surface or mounted to a ceiling. It tilts and swivels easily on its unique magnetic base. Download the free Stem:Connect App, then simply plug iZON in and set it up on your local wireless network. A few simple steps help you to create a secure user account and begin streaming live audio and video. iZON is peace of mind, connecting you to the most important people, places and things in your life.

The iZon is available today online, from select Best Buy stores and will also soon be available within Apple Stores across the U.S. and Canada. The cost of the iZone will be around $129.95. Looks like a great way to keep an eye on your property, check on your sleeping baby or even that partner you suspect of cheating on you!

This looks very nice but has limited recording capabilities and restricted viewing time. Fwiw, I bought two D-Link Wireless webcams, one looking at the front yard, one at the back yard, connected to the bundled (free) D-View Cam software which handles zone based motion detection, email alerts with picture attached, and video recording to PCMac. Combined with Splashtop Remote for iPhone and iPad, I can check in anytime, anywhere to view recordings, or just see what's going on.
